Triskellion

Product Information

Pettyjohn became quite popular at the Star Trek conventions and in 1979 Hooper photographed her in her costume from the episode "The Gamesters of Triskelion". They produced two posters that she sold at the conventions: one in her complete costume and one partially nude with the costume. [8] Death [ edit ] The Third Reich adopted a variation on the triskelion as the insignia for a Waffen-SS division composed of Belgian volunteers. After completion, the Triskelion served as the primary headquarters of S.H.I.E.L.D. and housed many of its agents and operations. Another important interpretation of the meaning of the Triskelion, was that it represents the elements of earth, water and the sky.

Kirk continues to plead for Shahna's life, asking that they punish him instead. The voice of Provider 1 asks if that is what Humans call compassion. It is interesting but of no use here; he must learn obedience, if he is to be an excellent thrall. Shahna's collar shuts off and she asks him why he would risk his own punishment on her behalf. He tells her that it is the custom of his people to help each other when they are in trouble and kisses her on the lips. She asks if this, too, is "helping," and he says you could call it that. Looking into his eyes she asks, " Please… help me once again." After some more kissing she begins to understand that a man and a woman can be together of their own choice. Galt appears out of nowhere but because they have amused the Providers, there is no punishment. Kirk protectively puts his arm around Shahna and they walk off together. But sometimes a much deeper spiritual meaning was attached to the Triskelion, being seen as representing:

In the ancient origins of Irish culture, the Triple Spiral is said to be an important spiritual marking. This article is about shapes with three-fold rotational symmetry.

Triskelion se objevuje vřadě raných kultur, například na mykénských plavidlech, na mincích z Lycie a statérech z Pamphylie (vAspendosu, 370–333 př.n.l.) a Pisidie. V Anatolii je znám také symbol čtyř spojených nohou – tetraskelion. Keltského vlivu v Anatolii, ztělesněného Galy, kteří napadli aobsadili Galatii, si všímají zvláště ti studenti, kteří upřednostňují keltský původ triskelionu. Trikvetatra je symbolem keltského boha moře Manannána a v germánském symbolismu boha Thóra.

The meaning of the Triskelion revolves around movement, energy, and cycles in life. In turn, this progress and movement present the ability to move forward and overcome adversity, which involves makes it one of the main symbols for strength. What does the Triskelion represent?The triskeles was included in the design of the Army Gold Medal awarded to British Army majors and above who had taken a key part in the Battle of Maida (1806). [20] The Triskelion contained many control rooms including the one used to control Project Insight and hunt down Captain America. Both on and outside of the structure itself, helipads and Quinjet launch bays had been built on the Island.

The triskele, usually consisting of spirals, but also the "horned triskelion", is used by some Polytheistic Reconstructionist and Neopagan groups. As a Celtic symbol, it is found primarily of groups with a Celtic cultural orientation and, less frequently, can also be found in use by some Germanic Neopagan groups and eclectic or syncretic traditions such as Wicca. The spiral triskele is one of the primary symbols of Celtic Reconstructionist Paganism. [3 ] Celtic Reconstructionists use the symbol to represent a variety of triplicities in their cosmology and theology; it is also a favored symbol due to its association with the god Manannán mac Lir. [3 ] Wicca is syncretic in nature and often aesthetically adopts symbolism from various cultures, particularly Celtic symbolism. It is less commonly used amongst Germanic Neopagan groups due to the non-Germanic origins of the symbol; use by Germanic groups may be due to confusion or association with Norse symbols with triple symmetries, like the Valknut, the Triquetra, or the symbol found on the Snoldelev Stone. According to Star Trek Maps (p. 27), Triskelion was the second planet in the system. When the small and disparate humanoid colony was given self-government it had a population of 480. Triskelion is the name of the Gay–straight alliance (GSA) at Brandeis University, one of the oldest such organizations on the East Coast. It was named for the Star Trek episode. In recent times (since the late Middle Ages), it has also become widely associated with the Christian faith, being used to represent the Holy Trinity, that being: Another condition of the wager was that the Providers would educate the remaining thralls and allow the development of a free society on the planet. ( TOS: " The Gamesters of Triskelion")The triskeles was adopted as emblem by the rulers of Syracuse. It is possible that this usage is related with the Greek name of the island of Sicily, Trinacria (Τρινακρία 'having three headlands'). [17] In Ireland before the 5th century, in Celtic Christianity the symbol took on new meaning, as a symbol of the Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). [ citation needed] There is no information pointing to the triskelion’s meaning in Celtic and pre-Celtic Irish culture. Still, credible theories abound, often related to the many triplicities in Celtic belief and life. Some examples of the triskelion spirals’ trios are believed to symbolize: land, sea, sky; life, death, rebirth; past, present, future; father, mother, child; the three trimesters of human pregnancy; and many other meanings.
